The Chevening Technology Enterprise Fellowship Programme was a 9-month programme designed to support companies and universities in the effective and efficient adoption and exploitation of technology in live, current projects

A total of four fellowships were awarded and the projects were:

1. To construct an interactive email application that works with the de-facto email applications that enables “real-time” email training to improve employee productivity

2. To build an application that will be able to capture and manage electronic knowledge from email communication.

3. To undertake a detailed assessment of employee email interaction to enable an Intelligent Electronic Message Classification and Notification Management Application to be developed that will increase the efficiency of an employee’s interaction with email through changing the way employees are currently interrupted and interact with email.

4. To enhance a fully Integrated Knowledge Workspace to enable employees to access “just-in-time knowledge” to increase their quality of work and productivity.
